Man Haven

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Man Haven This small bay was once used before the building of the Tyne Piers for launching pilot cobles when the sea was too rough to cross the Tyne Bar. Once an active fishing bay, only the remains of three boat-houses can now be seen.

In 2004, the Arbeia Society recorded a concrete platform with an iron winch at the foot of the pathway from the cliff top. Within the cliff face is a brick arch 3 metres x 3 metres filled in and cemented over. Two parallel sets of stone steps descend to the beach, parallel to a slipway with two remaining timbers and ironwork. Halfway down the path is a concrete platform with an iron winch on it. This is the roof on a pair of huts. There is a steel door 1 metres x 4.5 metres on a concrete base.
